Blowing Off The Day

[nozomisitter]

[Locked to Housemates]

[When Rin's eyes snapped open on the morning of the 15th, a sickening dread fell upon her person. It was the dread that she had just spent the last few days making a absolute fool of herself.

Crawling out of bed, she looked at the wilted roses and then felt absolutely sick, if only for the fact that she had practically hung over Nozomi without remorse. She was her FRIEND, not her... AUGH!

Tiredly, she dragged herself to Nozomi's room and knocked on it.]

Hey Nozomi, can you come out here for a second? I need to talk to you.


[Elementary or High School depending on the time of arrival]

[If it wasn't enough, the elementary had suddenly handed Rin her graduation papers and she was now in the High School. To be a freshman all over again, it was absolutely paralyzing. The jocks were making fun of her for being a girl who liked sports, and there were the popular girls who she gave no attention to.

She wasn't a nerd, so they couldn't hold it over her head. But they were being really mean.]


[Anywhere in town]

Precure Metamorphose!

[The magical butterflies swirled around Rin as her transformation took place. Deciding to go out on a training session, she punched and kicked, kicking up a storm of motion. She felt faster, stronger, like her powers had returned after opening that box a couple of weeks ago. Her hand ignited and she punched into a tree, cracking it before it went up in flames. Whoops. Fortunately it dissipated quickly, and she winced.]

So much for keeping a low profile while burning off steam...

[House]

[its_decided]

[When she heard Rin's voice, Nozomi was a little weary. The past few days had been nothing more than watching her best friend hang all over her like she was...

She shook her head. This was so awkward. What was this, Splash Star?

Opening the door, she peeked out to see Rin?]

...Yes?

[Rin bit her lip.]

Can I come in? I just want to talk, Nozomi.

[God why was this so awkward? Oh right, she was totally not into women, that's why.]

Just talk, before breakfast I mean. And in your room, so we won't have to disturb Einhard.

[its_decided]

[Cautiously, she opens the door.]

You're... not going to hang on me, are you?

[She's at the point where the next time she happens, it's Precure time.]

[nozomisitter]

No, no, I'm over that. Really.

[Inhales deeply and exhales slowly as she steps in.]

I'm... really, really sorry, Nozomi. For making you uncomfortable for the last few days.

[its_decided]

...you are? I... I mean, I...

...Yeah, it was uncomfortable...

[nozomisitter]

If I hug you, it won't be weird anymore, will it? I mean, I don't feel that way about you, I never have I just... [She sighed heavily.]

I guess now we know how some people feel when they screw up friendships huh?

[its_decided]

Heh, yeah...

[A few moments later, Nozomi's the one to initiate the hug.]

[nozomisitter]

[Rin stiffened, hoped to god she wasn't going to suddenly do something she regretted... and then relaxed, hugging Nozomi back.]

Sorry for that whole thing, Nozomi. I wasn't thinking straight.

[its_decided]

It's alright. I forgive you! You're not going to do it again, right?

[she just needs to be ready when it happens!]

[nozomisitter]

No, no, god no. You know I'm really not interested in you as a romantic interest anyhow, right?

I like guys anyhow.
